SEW SOLIDARITY CREW - ED HALL’S PROTEST BANNERS ARE WORKS OF ART

Ed Hall is a 64-year-old retired architect. He’s also a one-man factory of positive propaganda. If you’re a facist, homophobe, warmonger or a heartless person with too much power, then it’s likely Ed has socked it to you—with a banner. Since working for Lambeth Council in the 1980s, Ed has made over 400 banners for causes he believes in. Every stitch he does himself at home and, even though sorting out the Gay and Lesbian Firefighters Union with polemic arts and crafts isn’t very profitable, he refuses to do commercial work.

After a career in which he’s supported the unions against Thatcher and hoisted anti-George W. Bush banners up Nelson’s Column, Ed’s work is now being exhibited in proper art galleries. If you’re in China, you should visit the British Council’s art collection on display at the 2010 Shanghai Expo where Ed’s work is being shown alongside Bridget Riley and David Hockney. Anyone not in Shanghai who wants to see Ed’s work should probably go to any righteous protest happening anywhere in the UK.

Also you guys might want to unfollow in the next week, before Operation: Cat Using (and Not Using) People Toilet gets pretty much live-Tumbl’d.

I don’t know why I find toilet trained cats disturbing, but I do.

“It feels like we’re in the right category, but if you examine the rest of the awards, I guess you have to take it with a grain of salt because the same people who think your album is good enough to nominate you also think a lot of albums I think are basically cancers on the musical landscape are also really good.”

- Brian from Japandroids on being nominated for a Juno (via blownspeakers) (via lukesimcoe)

“Cancers on the musical landscape”? Okay, first of all, stop using cancer as an analogy for things. You know what is a cancer on any society? FUCKING ACTUAL CANCER. Second of all, you are letting a FUCKING JUNO go to your head. Stop talking, you sound like a prick.

Whenever I hear “Sounds Of Silence”, I think of this Top Ten List from an old episode of David Letterman…

Top Ten Messages Left On Paul Simon’s Answering Machine

10. “Hey, it’s Art. Wanna do an album?”
9. “Hello, Grammy winner, this is Metro Grammy Polishers calling with a great introductory offer”
8. “Art again. Wanna do a tour?”
7. “Hey, check out eBay. Art’s selling his lifetime achievement award”
6. “Fred Durst here — I think we’re all in agreeance that you were great”
5. “I saw you on CBS with Garfunkel. Was that a repeat?”
4. “Hey, it’s your old friend Darkness. Dude, give me a call”
3. “Hey, buddy, it’s Art. I think your answering machine is broken”
2. “This is announcer Alan Kalter — sorry for introducting you as Phil Simon”
1. “Hi, thought of a fifty-first way to leave your lover — run over him with a Mercedes”

Because people love hearing about my dreams

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:14:52 -0800

Last night I had an epic dream that a group of kids were trying to start a war with the Only magazine crew, via putting increasingly weird art installations in McLean Park. Cameron and Christy organized some sort of party where we were gonna reclaim the park via wearing really cool 80s-style clothes.

Christy and I looked through my mum’s old clothes, and she found some really awesome pastel yellow and white ski coat, and I was kind of mad she found it first. Amil had on florescent green Vuarnet sunglasses . I made an entire outfit out of plastic leis, and Cameron said “You think we’re gonna beat a whole bunch of 17-year-old hipsters with that? We need more neon!”

The end.

Holy hell.

The Vancouver 2010 auction is your only source for official 2010 Winter Games memorabilia. For the first time in the history of the Games, some of the most coveted items used during competition including medal podia, medal trays, pucks, ski gates and more are available for purchase. Own a piece of Olympic history today by bidding on these unique items.

I will pay $112.50 for an official Vancouver 2010 ashtray, and not a penny more.

jenniferanne:

96? Oh god. And it would have been higher, but I put “no” on the piercing question because I took that ridiculous thing out of my face years ago.

blownspeakers:

I got an 80.

skinnyghost:

I got 98. ZEITGEIST.

towerofsleep:

I only got 71. I was born in ‘82, so technically I should be a Millennial, not a Gen-Xer, but I guess I’m a few years behind the times. Probably because I read a newspaper this morning and haven’t played any video games recently.

elainecorden:

um, 56. If I’d done it a year ago I would have been a 90.

Beard tweet.

Has anyone seen the new show from the producers of Entourage, called How to Make it in America ? It basically entourage except New York art scene “hipsters”. SO TERRIBLE. Worse than Entourage, and I didn’t think that was possible.
